Note-New wheat sells several cents below
old wheat of the same grade as the present
demand is chiefly milling demand and new
wheat is not sufficiently matured for milking
flour. The difference is greater in lower
grades.
Note-In sales of wheat by samples. grade
has little. il any, effect in making prices,
that being determined by quality and the
percentage Of hard in each parcel.
Note-Shippers would do well not to ship
new wheat until after it has gone through

car and inspeets Il lower grade

Fl0ur-In some respects the market was
less buoyant, the effect of the late break II,
wheat: But in general way the market may
mand for spring wheat flour. and stocks are
light almost everywhere The old wheat is
still used because buyers prefer ii, and for
the further reason that new wheat is not vet
in condition to grind proftabiy. Even wheat
that has been securely housed is affected by
the moisture of the season, and its. dampness
prevents a good yield of high grade product.
There would, therefore, be no profit in using
new wheat It it were acceptable to buyers.
